The moment Mrs. Fu heard the news, she knew she had to strike first.
After all, if she didn’t go to the Bai Family, they would soon come to her.
When that happened, the Bai mother and daughter would kneel at her doorstep. ’Wouldn’t those wretched people and their theatrics drive all our family’s good luck away?’
What’s more, if they came crying and making a scene, the neighbors’ hearts would soften, and they’d think the Fu family was the one being aggressive.
’The best way to settle a dispute is to charge right in and hit them first.’
And so, as the crowd of neighbors grew, Mrs. Fu launched her tirade. "This black-hearted family! Why did they have to target a widow and her daughter like us?"
"To help Bai Siqi steal my daughter’s university admission notice, they came up with a truly vicious plan. Bai Chunsheng paid someone to push my daughter into the river, and then had that animal Song Yan pretend to rescue her."
"If he’d ’rescued’ my daughter in the river right in front of all those people on the bank, wouldn’t she have been forced to marry that animal? He didn’t want Bai Siqi to be saddled with his three wailing children and a mother who needs constant care, so he schemed to drag my daughter into that hellhole instead!"
The crowd’s eyes widened, stunned by the bombshell revelation.
’Heavens, could this be true?’
Song Yan’s face was livid. He never imagined Mrs. Fu would actually drag him into it.
He could no longer just stand there.
He immediately stepped forward. "Ma’am, you can’t just spout nonsense like that. Slander is a crime, you know. And what’s more, you’re slandering a soldier—"
Seeing his menacing look, Mrs. Fu immediately stepped in front of her daughter, glaring back at him fiercely.
"What? You want to hit my daughter? I’m telling you, as for that conniving animal Bai Chunsheng, don’t even think we’ll sign any letter of forgiveness. He deserves to be executed!"
But she wasn’t done. She turned to the neighbors and continued her broadcast. "And all of you who live nearby, you’d better be careful! This whole family is rotten to the core. Who knows when they’ll decide to come after you next!"
The neighbors: ...?
Song Yan: ...?
The three members of the Bai Family: ?...
